🚹 WEAK U.S. JOBS DATA JUST CHANGED THE BITCOIN MACRO PICTURE

The latest U.S. jobs report came in much weaker than expected:

📉 Nonfarm Payrolls: +29K vs ~84K–90K expected
📈 Unemployment Rate: 4.2%
🏩 October Fed rate-hike odds: dropped to around 17%

Why does this matter for Bitcoin?

Weaker employment data can reduce pressure on the Fed to tighten monetary policy further. Lower rate expectations generally support liquidity and risk assets and BTC quickly pushed back above $86K as traders reacted.

But here’s the bigger story 👇

đŸ”„ Citi reportedly raised its 12-month Bitcoin target from $82K to $113K.

The bank’s outlook points toward: ‱ A potentially softer U.S. dollar
‱ Improving macro conditions
‱ A return of crypto fund inflows
‱ Around $5B in projected inflows over the next 12 months

đŸŒ PANDA VIEW

This strengthens the bullish macro case, but $113K is a 12-month forecast not an October target.

For now, I’m watching whether BTC can continue holding the $82K–$85K region, whether institutional inflows accelerate, and whether falling rate-hike expectations can outweigh elevated long-term yields.

Uptober may have received another macro boost. đŸ‘€đŸ”„

Do you think $113K BTC is achievable within the next 12 months?
